I Only Want You novel Chapter 93

By the time Elizabeth Liang woke up, it was already afternoon the next day.

The sun shone through the curtains, and the air conditioning in the room was set to a pleasant temperature.

"Mmh..." Elizabeth raised her sore hands and rubbed her painful head.

As she was massaging her head and looking at the curtains in her room, a question arose in her mind — She was glad to be back in this familiar room, but how exactly did she get back?

Elizabeth tried hard to recall what happened, but to no avail. The last thing she remembered was dying from the heat in the hotel bathroom, and then somebody saying that they were going to take her to James Lu.

When she remembered this, last night's events quickly flashed through her mind — she drank something that she shouldn't have. Why did James feed that to her? If he wanted something from her, why couldn't he have just asked? Why did he have to do something so vile?

So, James was the one who took her home?

But, knowing the kind of person he was after being with him all this time, she thought that he would never do that!

Countless thoughts raced across Elizabeth's mind as she knitted her eyebrows together. After lying on the bed for a while, she reached out for her cellphone with a trembling hand.

When she saw the time on the screen, she reflexively yelped—

"Crap! Oh my god!"

It was three o'clock!

Although she was in a bad mood right now, she still had a job to go to!

Elizabeth got out of bed in a hurry, but as soon as her feet touched the ground, her legs were so weak that she immediately collapsed onto the floor.

"Ugh..." She softly gasped.

How could this be?

She was feeling the same way that she did after that crazy night with James, in fact, this felt even worse!

Did... did she really do it with James?

There were two unread messages on Elizabeth's phone. She pushed down her apprehension and opened them. One was a message from Evelyn Wu -How are you feeling, Elizabeth? Did your husband do anything to you after you guys got back? Give me a call when you see this text!

The other message was from Theodore Chao - Are you okay, Elizabeth?

Both messages were sent to her during yesterday midnight.

What did it mean that Evelyn and Theodore were sending her these messages? Panic ran through Elizabeth, and she looked down at the clothes she was wearing - they were the same from yesterday, but very crumpled.

She was shocked and vexed by the soreness and pain that her body was feeling. She just couldn't understand. Even if James had these improper thoughts, why didn't he just talk to her about it instead of forcing himself on her while she was unconscious? What did he think of her as?

Elizabeth's heart felt cold from disappointment and heartache.

Of course she couldn't be bothered to reply to Evelyn or Theodore's texts or make a call right now!

Deeply troubled, Elizabeth gritted her teeth and propped herself up using the bed. She struggled all the way to the bathroom with the support of the walls and stood still in front of the mirror. After making up her mind, she mustered all of her courage to look at herself in the mirror...

Her neck was spotless! She lifted her clothes, and couldn't find any suspicious marks on her body! Then why did she feel so limp and weak, as if she had just finished running a marathon?

Elizabeth held back her suspicions and quickly washed herself up. Then she changed into clean clothes before she opened the door and went downstairs in a hurry.

"Where are you going?"

She rushed down the stairs and ran all the way past the living room sofa, when she heard James's voice coming from the window.

Elizabeth had to stop in her tracks and look up at James, whom she failed to notice just now. "You're home?"

James did not answer her. With one hand in his pocket, he walked over to her in a few steps. "I asked you where you're going."

"To work!" Even though Elizabeth hasn't figured out the whole story yet, she couldn't help but snap at him.

James rubbed the space between his eyebrows and almost laughed as a reaction. It was honestly kind of impressive that she was still worried about her work right now!

"You don't have to go."

"What?"

"I got someone to ask for a day off for you."

"Huh?" Elizabeth's jaw hung open in surprise as she stared at James in front of her in disbelief. "How did you find out where I work?"

James glanced at her as if she were an idiot. "Do you think it would be hard for me?"

Elizabeth shook her head and felt a little relaxed. She was weak all over and it was obviously best for her not to go to work.

However...

"Why did you suddenly think of asking for a day off for me?" Elizabeth couldn't help but look at James with doubtful eyes as she asked this.

Not only was she feeling very weird today, he was also acting incredibly strange. Did he really do something wrong to her? "Why are you looking at me like that?" James frowned with displeasure.
